Leonard Cohen - A Thousand Kisses Deep

...“Ring the bells that still can ring / Forget your perfect offering / There is a crack in everything / That’s how the light gets in.“ (L. Cohen - Anthem) Rest in Peace, Mr. Cohen. You’ve left us many stars to stay our minds on... *** Album: Ten New Songs (2001) *** lyrics: The ponies run, the girls are young, The odds are there to beat. You win a while, and then it’s done - Your little winning streak. And summoned now to deal With your invincible defeat, You live your life as if it’s real, A Thousand Kisses Deep. I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed, I’m back on Boogie Street. You lose your grip, and then you slip Into the Masterpiece. And maybe I had miles to drive, And promises to keep: You ditch it all to stay alive, A Thousand Kisses Deep. And sometimes when the night is slow, The wretched and the meek, We gather up our hearts and go, A Thousand Kisses Deep. Confin
